Chapter 341 Rotten Tree Demon

Chapter 341: Chapter 341 Rotten Tree Demon

Undead were extremely sensitive to the presence of living beings. Despite hiding in the forest, once they approached a certain distance, the skeletons still discovered the people hidden around them.

So, several battles ensued. It must be said that this was indeed Druids’ home field.

These Druids were very tall, each of them over two meters in stature, like small giants. They were clad in animal hides and leaves, looking much like genuine Druids.

However, upon closer inspection, one could see many special items on these Druids, all made from various internal organs of creatures—a practice normal Druids certainly wouldn’t adopt.

Thus, it was somewhat reasonable to label these Dark Druids as Fallen Druids.

The Druids were tall, and although all were only at Apprentice Level, their strength was in no way inferior to that of the skeletons. This was still the case even though the skeletons were bolstered by a Divine Statue, which greatly increased their strength.

But before long, these Druids couldn’t hold on.

For nearly every three skeletons that died, two Druids perished as well. Advancing at this rate, the sheer number of skeletons was terrifying and soon, the Druids couldn’t withstand them.

"We can’t handle this; we must report—there are too many skeletons for us to contend with."

"Right, we’ve got to find their lair and completely destroy them."

A group of Dark Druids grimly hurried away. In the forest, the skeletons surprisingly couldn’t keep up with them. Moreover, from time to time, some roots would emerge and entangle, hindering the skeletons’ pursuit.

The skeletons didn’t mind; when unable to pursue, they simply continued advancing deeper.

At the forest’s edge, this area was quickly overtaken by the skeletons.

In less than a day, the skeletons had advanced a significant area. If it weren’t for Fang Jie’s control, some regions might have overlapped with the borders of New Moon Kingdom.

Currently, Fang Jie didn’t want New Moon Kingdom to notice anything, so he was careful to keep hidden.

However, by that night, the Druids’ counterattack arrived.

At that moment, Fang Jie, who was on Flower Plateau, used the Death Crow to observe some movements in the forest. After reaching the Silver Level, the observation range and clarity of the Death Crow had greatly improved.

Even Fang Jie’s Death Crow could now utter some simple words.

It might not seem like a big change, but being able to speak and not being able to speak were completely different matters. This meant that Fang Jie could convey some commands through the Death Crow.

Within the flying range of the Death Crow, the practicality of this spell had greatly increased.

It was just that the Death Crow’s strength hadn’t improved much, as most of the enhancements were for its stealth abilities and flying speed.

"Strange, what are they doing?" Fang Jie noticed some unusual behavior among the Druids.

The deeper into the forest, the stronger the Druids became. Those coming out now were at Black Iron Level. Fang Jie didn’t mind and continued to push the skeletons deeper.

After all, if things really went south, he could handle Black Iron Level himself.

One of the Druids, chanting a special spell, then opened a bottle containing some black liquid. Without hesitation, he splashed it towards a tree.

The next moment, the tree slowly stood up.

"How odd, do Druids need specific materials to summon Tree Demon Warriors?"

Fang Jie recalled and realized he had never heard of such a method. Generally, didn’t Druids need to communicate with a great tree and gain its consent before they could control it to stand up and become a Tree Demon Warrior?

However, Tree Demon Warriors usually could only be maintained for a period of time before they needed to be replanted.

But what Fang Jie saw was clearly not the case. After the Tree Demon Warrior stood up, a bizarre mark gradually appeared on its body, which looked utterly unnatural.

Upon closer inspection, it looked as if something was rotting. The eyes of those Tree Demons also glimmered with a strange light, and it seemed the Druid had no intention of properly controlling it, merely pointing forward.

Then the rotting Tree Demon rushed forward.

Rotting Tree Demon Level 2: Level (Black Iron)

Through the Death Crow, Fang Jie could see clearly the name of that thing. This thing definitely wasn’t a typical Druidic spell. The surface of the rotting Tree Demon showed nothing significant, but the rot was definitely not useless.

During the battle, Fang Jie discovered that this rot decreased the Tree Demon’s defense. However, every time it was attacked, some fluid would splash out, and one didn’t even need to think to know there was an issue.

Perhaps like those Zombies, it uses this method to spread toxins to the enemy.

Didn’t you see that after those Dark Druids summoned them, they all stayed far away from these Tree Demons, with none willing to approach?

As more and more Druids joined, tree after tree in the forest rose from the ground and turned into such rotting beings. The battle in the forest suddenly intensified.

"Wait a second, this seems to have been going on for quite a long time, hasn’t it?"

Suddenly, Fang Jie felt something was off because it seemed a very long time had passed.

Normally, the summoned Tree Demons needed to be replanted because they had expended their own energy and needed to regather it. However, these rotting Tree Demons showed no intention of re-rooting at all.

All the rotting Tree Demons continued to fight here relentlessly, without any signs of rest.

"Rotting deadly poison and not needing to rest, when looked at from the capabilities of the spell itself, are indeed much stronger than the orthodox Druidic magic. No wonder so many Druids choose to fall."

Such a massive forest turning into Tree Demons emphasized an incredibly terrifying force.

However, Fang Jie wasn’t worried because normal Tree Demons could recover as long as they didn’t die, but these could only remain as they were once summoned. Even Fang Jie noticed that many plants at the front lines of the battle were showing yellowed leaves.

Fang Jie was certain this was not caused by his Undead; it must have been the doing of these rotting Tree Demons.

In a real battle, it was uncertain whether this forest could withstand.

A Fallen profession is a Fallen profession, appearing much stronger on the surface, but in reality, fraught with greater problems, and some things cannot be shortcut.

"It seems this battle will be a long one; let’s leave it at that for now and slowly wear it down."

Fang Jie had no intention of staying here any longer, merely continuously sending Undead from his Territory into the forest.
